This afternoon (12/5) I saw Jacob Job at Musick's Campground. He reported
seeing what he believed were eight (8) Snow Geese flying along TN Rt. 44 near
the Virginia-Tennessee stateline. First they flew north and then turned back
south. We drove up and down the road and a side road before Jacob again
spotted the birds flying north along the highway. This time they were near
King Lane. We turned to give chase, coming upon them flying along the road
where Painter Creek flows under Rt. 44. We got out of the car and observed
that two were dark morph birds and six were white morphs. All were Snow Geese.
These are probably the same birds reported earier today at Musick's Campground
by Don Miller. All observations were in Sullivan Co., TN.
Let's go birding......
